The 3:00 Book

By August 8, 2016

Beth Heinly, The 3:00 Book comic

What Others Are Reading...

A six-panel, black-and-white comic shows a Black woman in a dark poncho and a white woman in a jacket and Phillies baseball hat on a city street, walking and talking about the afterlife and their beliefs.

The 3:00 Book
A three-panel, black and white comic titled 3:00 or three o’clock in the afternoon, shows two women, Annoying Girl and Beth, walking down a sidewalk in Philadelphia, with Annoying Girl looking at images of French protesters on her phone and commenting how cool they looked compared to American protesters and wondering why that is and Beth comments, in French, that she doesn’t know, which is also a reference to the “je ne said quoi” that people say to mean “that certain something that you can’t quite put your finger on.”

The 3:00 Book
1 panel comic from the series "The 3:00 Book," in which the main recurring character (a female-bodied person with their hair typically tied up in a pony tail or a bun), who looks extremely tired, but is beaming with joy, is squatted down and hunched over, holding their phone between their knees, and taking a picture of their two cats, who have their tongues extended and wrapped together in a kiss.

The 3:00 Book
3 panel comic from the series "The 3:00 Book," in which two people walk side by side down the street in summer clothes looking at their phones and discussing what they're seeing; which is news about the latest school shooting. The person on the right, "annoying girl," is ranting about how to solve the issue- while the other person remarks that it's a symptom of cultural collapse.
